- Poem "Our Boys Have Gone A'fightin" written by Jerome internment camp high-school student Stella Hayashida
Civil Rights -- Internment Camps -- Japanese-Americans -- Relocation Camps -- Denson -- Drew
Our bays have gone a fighting Our bays have gone a fighting To keep our country still, With liberty and justices, To last throughout the world. Our bays have gone a fighting To give the dictators a mind, The life we always want to live, A hard comparison with theirs. Our bays have gone a fighting, To see what they can do, Our country lasting ever more In peace, equality and liberty. Our bays have gone afighting And will come back again With victory resting on their heads, We should be ever thankful. - Metadata URL:
